Manufacturing & Industrials

Manufacturing and industrial companies face the challenge of having to transform their material and engineering know how into high tech products driven by new technologies. The Internet of Things and Industry 4.0 mean not only inventing and producing new goods, but also digitising and globalising the entire supply chain. These complexities and technological advances, coupled with an economy that changes rapidly and constantly, have led to technical, commercial and legal issues of a brand new kind.

For many decades, Taylor Wessing has facilitated the rapid change of industries, especially in the aerospace & defence, high-tech engineering and chemicals sectors, and has advised many world-leading brands and conglomerates. If you are entering a new market, changing a business model, disposing of your non-core assets, acquiring new businesses or protecting your world-class know how – our highly experienced lawyers will guide you through every project, not only with legal but with deep industry and business know how.

Our Manufacturing and Industrial team has built long-standing relationships with market leading companies, and have advised them in nearly every aspect of their business: from M&A, joint ventures, employment & pensions, IP/IT and real estate, to greenfield investments, projects & project finance, commercial law and dispute resolution.
